Core Insight:
According to Osho, Patanjali’s practice liberates because it reverses the very mechanisms that enslave you. Society knots the mind through attachment, expectation and anger; yoga retraces the path in the opposite direction—non-attachment, non-expectation, compassion—unties those knots, and restores the original, unknotted consciousness. It is unconditioning, not reconditioning: a precise, stepwise undoing that frees without creating a new prison.
